What is Tar and Chip Sealing?
Tar and chip is a combination of hot liquid asphalt cement and gravel. Gravel gives structural support while hot tar works as a binder. We deliver both components separately and mix them at the job site. Tar and chip is used by County and State road crews on road paving projects in several states in America.

Why is Tar and Chip Sealing Better Than Asphalt Sealing?
- Affordable - The initial cost of installing tar and chip can be up to 40% less than a comparable asphalt installation.
- Easy to maintain - Tar and chip requires little maintenance while asphalt requires seal coating every few years.
- Convenient - You don't need to wait for a day or two before using a surface with tar and chip sealing since it hardens very quickly.
- Better traction - Tar and chip has a rough and gritty surface that is ideal for steep slopes and driving in wet conditions.
- Cooler temperature - Chip seal has a light-colored stone surface that does not absorb heat the way blacktop does.
- Natural looking - Chip seal has the rustic look and feel of a country gravel road.
